Sierra 1500

  • 60,440 miles
I purchased this truck with all 4 tires Goodyear Wrangler at/S 265/70 R17 dot number 4bt6 fder 3411 on August 19,2016. I have had a shaky/bumpy sensation since I bought the truck & the tires always wore uneven. The mileage on the vehicle was 47,541 at the time of purchase. On February 15, 2016 at a mileage of roughly 60,440 two of the tires had belts break. I had the tires checked by multiple repair places & was told that it is a tire defect. Dealership refused to replace tires. I bought 4 new tires of a different brand. I am unsure of the mileage put on the tires before my purchase, but I only put around 13,000 miles on them before the iccurance.
